Younge: Vinyl LP

Pre-Order Item. Release Date Subject to Change.
Label: Linear Labs
Release Date: 17th April

Uber prolific composer, producer and arranger Adrian Younge approaches this new orchestral cinematic instrumental album from the viewpoint of the hip hop producer and digger eager to hit gold with that killer drum break, fuzzy guitar and lush sweeping of strings and drama. In that he takes influence from the regularly mined composers of the past from Lalo Schifrin, David Axelrod, Ennio Morricone, Galt MacDermot, and Portishead’s Geoff Barrow. 

YOUNGE is Adrian Younge’s magnum opus: an orchestral album written from the perspective of a hip hop producer, and a hip hop record composed with the discipline of classical and cinematic music. Inspired by composers like Lalo Schifrin, David Axelrod, Ennio Morricone, Galt MacDermot, and Portishead’s Geoff Barrow, the album draws from a lineage of emotionally charged, forward-thinking music that quietly shaped hip hop decades later through sampling.
